why not? he has big time ability, and should be available for a late round pick. High reward and low risk.

If he keeps his nose straight (pun intended) he could be in line for a big time contract after his cheap rookie contract. That should be plenty incentive. Maybe Andy Reid can use his experiences to provide leadership and guidance to a troubled and talented young man.

Ebron and Amaro could provide immediate impact in spots and be fully ready to go by year 2.

1. thats an assumption.
2. you never defined what "impact" exactly is.
3. Amaro was used more as a slot wr than a TE. He has a big learning curve.
4. Here is a list of the receiving #s for rookie TE Low draft pick TE made a "bigger impact" than the early draft picks.

1. you are the only one in this conversation using the term "developmental." Please re-read your posts and my posts.

2. I have already alluded to his drug problem (cocaine) and said I expect him to be a late draft pick.

he is very athletic and a good receiving TE. If you only judge a person by prior drug history and not on the individual himself, than the chiefs would have missed out on Justin houston. Current chiefs such as Hali and Bowe have also had run-ins with the law from use of illegal drugs.

The top question with North Carolina's Eric Ebron isn't whether or not he's the top tight end in this class (he is). The better question is how high will he go? Already viewed as a possible top-10 pick, he had a chance to help himself even more at his pro day in Chapel Hill, but a few drops were the lasting image for several in attendance.

Ebron is a special athlete with impressive tools for the position, but on tape he isn't the most reliable finisher with inconsistent focus, making some of the toughest catches look easy, but too many routine ones hit the ground. And his pro day backed up what he showed on film – awesome potential due to his athleticism, developing strength and overall attitude, but he needs some seasoning to his game to help with the inconsistency issues. Nonetheless, Ebron did nothing at his pro day to dissuade teams from not taking him in the first half of round one.
